QuoteThe best known form of imprinting is filial imprinting, in which a young animal acquires several of its behavioral characteristics from its parent. It is most obvious in nidifugous birds, which imprint on their parents and then follow them around. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Imprinting_(psychology) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
